What are you Obsessed with??? - Page 4 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

chewysmom · 06-29-2005, 07:18 AM

I am a little bit of a neat freak and like rrosenberry, obsessed with my house smelling good! I spend a fortune on candles and house scenting products. Every time we walk past Jo Malone, my husband says, NOOOOOOO.

I am also obsessed with relearning French, which I spoke fluently as a child, good skincare products and like every New Yorker, obsessed over finding the perfect cup of coffee.

Oh and I'm also a little obsessed with Chewy's topknot!!!

I am also obsessed with my computer and creating new things on photo programs, etc. I'm obsessed with animals too! I love them so much, especially dogs and I get so upset if an animal died or is hurt, etc.

Im also obsessed with YT. Last nite I was having problems getting into the site, I was so upset. I just went to sleep, then again it was 4 am,

I dont know if is really an obssession but I love to create tags using PSP.

Me too! Seriously, tell me they don't notice them?!?! Come on- it literally take 2 seconds to clean them up! (and would save me the time it takes to point out the crumbs and how easy it is to pick them up!!)

I am obsessed with my house smelling pretty too!!! I too spend a fortune on candles and air fresheners!!!! My neighbors laugh at me saying they can smell the candles even outside!!!! hehe!!!!

Funny, but true story!!!!

One night my hubby went out with some of his friends. So it was just me and my dad (who was staying with us cuz his house got flooded real bad) and I had about 12 candles lit!! So around 1 in the morning, ALL of my fire alarms go off!!!

I couldn't figure why they went off and couldn't figure out how to shut them off!!! So I run all over the house amking sure there is no fire- there wasn't but my dad still runs ouside!! So Now I am really feakin out- I live in a condo where there are 4 units attached. So I call the 911, maybe one of the other units are on fire!! So I hear the sirens on there way, and just then, my hubby comes home with a few of the guys and he starts freaking out too- but then I told him the fire dept was on the way. Mind you-- alarms still going off!!

he goes in and waves towel at the alarm thingy and it shuts off. Just then the fire dept shows up and they come inand see all my candles lit and blows all them out and proceeds to give me a lecture on burning them too long. I was embarassed!! We live in a condo complex where there are mainly people in their 60-80's!!! And only a few younguns like us!! So we woke everyone up, they all are outside seeing whats going on, there were like 3 fire trucks, 2 police cars!!! All because I had too many candles burning at one time!!!

So be careful burning too many candles at one time!!!!!! And not for too long!!!!!!!!

I am obsessed with...

Clean sheets

Good smelling rooms (candles, airwick plun ins, cleaning products, fabreeze, True Air air filter, sometimes I'll even make cookies just to make the house smell good)

Things "looking" perfect (it's so dumb, I can't stand when things are scuffed up, wrinkled, look cheap, ect)

Not running out of Diet Coke

That's so what I was thinking...Sleeping with the Enemy!! You guys are cracking me up!! I'm not that way at all. You would go insane if you came to my house. My silverware doesn't even get put away neatly. Drives my husband nuts. I am the most disorganized person I know and I'm really not happy about it. Hmmmm, let's see, do I obsess over anything? Probably I obsess over problems with my kids, like my daughter's boyfriend (can't stand him), and their school, activities, etc. And I do also obsess about the dogs. And YT. I guess that's all. But that's enough to keep me nuts, lol!
